Abstract

The Laptev Sea Shelf (LSS) is marked by a virtually continuous distribution of offshore relic ice-bonded permafrost (IBP).Main features of IBP formation and evolution have been createcl uneler the influence of LSS exposure anel submerge by sea watcr, accurnulation of ice complcx, its thermal erosion, thermokarst lake anel alas formation c1uring the Late Pleistocene-Holoccne glacioeustatic cycle.Natural events versus time on the LSS anel its influence on permafrost evolution in the form of a palco-scenario aelaptecl for mathematical simulation of offshore permafrost are c1escribeel in this paper.'~-~, '.
